howdy everyone:) a random watching of survivorman, led to some curiosity on google, that led me to this forum about fire starters, and walla!!!! i had a few thoughts and signed up.
well, i was asked to come on over to this section and introduce myself. Here's a little short of what and who i am.
recently:
graduated from UW
BS Aeronautics & Astronautics Engineering
BS Physics
work for a private/commercial space company as a rocket propulsion engineer
last decade or so while in/out and then back into school:
emergency room technician
emergency medical technician-basic (EMT-B on ambulance)
phlebotomist
lab assistant
started at:
NMSU (walk-on red shirt freshmen wide receiver for the aggies, wow talk about an a$$ kickin' but a lot of fun)
Pierce College
did a whole lot of small college jobs for the fun of it (security, stage hand, teller, delivery, waiter, sales, cook, landscape, art design, rentals, photography, mngmt, and probably a few others...)
got a second chance at life and my childhood dreams and headed right back that way and never stopped and never again! :) graduated later in life, but with a little more sense on my shoulders then when i started.
Grew up in a military family with a macgyver of a father and younger brother equally. mother you couldnt ask more of. close family. lets see what else.... hobbies and interests?!?!
heres a short list of those interests:
The Great Outdoors !!! (lots of camping, offroading, shooting, fishing, hiking, backpacking, keeping the wilderness clean, seeing new wildernesses, understanding our world, kayaking, biking, rock climbing, hanging with good friends over a fire and spirits, snowboarding, rafting, sailing, star gazing, testing new survival tactics and ideas, doing silly things, etc.), laughing:), various sports (football an etc), rockets, engines, build stuff, working out, play my guitar, coffee, comedy, act, artist, aerospace sciences, flying, gliding, cook, dance, Emergency Medical Services, play with my toys, filming, flying, XPrize Cup, Rocket Races, football, billiards, bowling, eat out, movies, research, star gazing, mods to my offroad Toyota, planning that new jeep, designing a green efficient sports car/machine. making a difference in the world, saving lives..... and.... (etc.)
i dont have enough time in my life to keep track of them, but i do them all for the most part scheduled out or spontaneously.
well, i guess thats a short of me. feel free to ask any questions, throw your thoughts, opinions, and wise cracks :D live to laugh!!!
